We'd Better Spy On Everybody Twice

And double the surveillance budget.
NAIROBI, Kenya — Viewing the deadly siege at a shopping mall in Kenya as a direct threat to its security, the United States is deploying dozens of F.B.I. agents to investigate the wreckage, hoping to glean every piece of information possible to help prevent such a devastating attack from happening again, possibly even on American soil.

It's always about us. Look if there are people willing to get caught and/or die while killing others then there's really nothing that can be done to stop them. It's insane to expend so many resources - also, too, killing people - protecting against low probability events that you can't really stop anyway. If some assholes want to shoot up an American mall, they're going to be able to get the guns and do it. It's that simple.
